Bing Fund Gets A Proper Unveiling: Here’s What It Has To Offer

On the BingFund homepage, it says, “Hi, we’re an angel investor with an incubator, working with hot startups to innovate online.”

According to the site, Bing Fund intends to focus on a few startups at a time, and as it graduates one out of the program, it will fill the spot with another. Bing Fund says it offers:

Subsidized use of unique APIs from Bing’s data ecosystem

The opportunity to access certain technology assets developed by Microsoft Research

Assistance from Bing Fund team members who specialize in design, engineering, marketing, and building businesses

Consultations with Subject Matter Experts at Microsoft, some of whom are world experts in their areas

Exposure to Microsoft executives

Connections with our partners and customers

Funding

Co-workspace for startups located in the Seattle area.

Bing says Bing Fund is looking for startups that are building online or mobile experiences that incorporate “fresh insights,” and that have both inspirational vision and ability to execute. A working prototype (preferably with a site or app that is already live) and gaining momentum is required.
